Will Corbyn appear on stage with the Libertines?

Social media was awash with claims the Labour leader would share the stage with Pete Docherty’s band The Libertines at Wirral Live this evening.

But the ECHO can exclusively reveal this isn’t true.

A source told us he plans to share the stage with Wirral band The Corral tonight instead.

No doubt concert goers will be impressed.

What does Corbyn think of Wirral West Margaret Greenwood?

The ECHO got an exclusive chat with the Labour leader just before the rally.

He refuted claims his appearance was due to worries the Labour party could lose the Wirral West seat.

He said:

“I’m here to support Margaret as I am here to support candidates everywhere else. I have been in a majority of conservative held constituencies on the events I have done this is the fiftieth campaign I have done since he election was announced.

“I strongly support Margaret as I support and all the people across the area on what we can achieve for Labour.”
